Great video! Just wondering if at minute 2 it wasn’t a Frogfish?

[@bada-lover]

I think it is the frog fish. It is always confusing because stone fish and frog fish looks similar but I am sure this is frog fish since it has the fins looks like an animal feet. :-)

At what depth were you? If I acquire just an "open water license" and go just to 6-10 m, can I see something interesting? Thanks

[@bada-lover]

You can dive to 18m with Open Water License. And I think that most beautiful area in the sea is above 10m so you can see most interesting creatures with Open Water License. But I recommend you to get Advanced Open Water because most of dive point such as ship wreck or cave are located under 18m so you can enjoy full package of the ocean.

How much it costs and how much time we should be under water

[@bada-lover]

That depends on where you learn. Generally, you need two license. You have to get "open water license" first and then need to get "advanced open water license". Normally, it cost more than thousands dollars and take approximately a month. But in Philippines, they have a great system so that you need about 600 to 700 dollars and you can get two licenses with in a week. You can find a lots of good scuba diving training facilities in CEBU, on google.

What is the process to do Scuba Driving in Thailand after arrived there???

[@bada-lover]

There are many dive shop at Phuket. You can choose one of them and book dive trip before you arrive. Then they will pick you up at the airport and send you back to the airport after trip.

Is this just shot with a go pro and red lens ?

[@bada-lover]

I am using Sony RX-100VA and HDR-AS300 which support water mode white balance. Gopro doesn't support water mode white balance and that is why they attach red filter on it. And I think you cannot get natural colors of underwater with Gopro with red filter.
